01
Custom Home Electrical
Custom home electrical requires more than skill. It requires a contractor who shows up prepared, understands the plans, communicates clearly, and understands how their work fits into the larger project. We’ve worked alongside some of San Diego’s most respected builders and design teams, and we bring that same standard of high expectations and professionalism to every construction project. From service sizing and panel design to smart home pre-wire and finish electrical, we handle the full scope so your project moves forward without interruption.

ADUs function as fully independent, smaller scale living spaces. They need their own panel, their own service connection, and their own systems done right. We handle the entire electrical installation and work efficiently without cutting corners. Whether it’s a garage conversion, a backyard unit, or a full addition, we have the experience to handle it cleanly from start to finish.

Smart Home Integration & Lighting Control
Most electricians stop at the wall. We don’t. Smart home systems like Lutron RadioRA 3 and HomeWorks sit at the intersection of high-voltage electrical and low-voltage control systems, and very few contractors are equipped to work fluently across both. That gap is where projects break down, where programmers get called back, and where timelines slip. Voltwell handles the electrical and infrastructure side in full, working alongside a trusted preferred programming partner to ensure the entire system performs exactly as intended. The result is a home where lighting, controls, and technology all work together the way they were designed to, without the back and forth that comes from coordinating across multiple contractors who only know half the picture.

Architectural Lighting
Lighting shapes how a space feels more than almost any other system in the home. We install architectural lighting that performs as well as it looks, from cove and wall wash to precision-controlled fixtures in high-end residential environments. We know the importance of great lighting and how it all comes together.

Landscape Lighting
Landscape lighting is one of the most effective ways to elevate a property, adding both visual impact and functional use after dark. We install high-end exterior lighting systems that highlight architectural features, enhance outdoor living spaces, and create a cohesive transition between the home and its surroundings. From pathway and accent lighting to full-property illumination, our work is clean, intentional, and built for long-term performance, with smart control options that allow for seamless operation and flexibility.

EV charger installation is one of our most requested services, and we have a strong track record doing it throughout San Diego. With over 28 commercial stations and countless residential units installed, we understand how to handle these systems cleanly and correctly. By assessing your panel capacity, running the dedicated circuit, and mounting the unit for optimal use, we deliver a system that is built to perform. We take care of the entire installation process from start to finish, including existing home upgrades and the specific pre-wiring and conduit infrastructure now required by California building codes for new construction.

What Builders & Homeowners Say

Andor manages the full electrical and Lutron integration himself, RadioRA 3, HomeWorks, the whole coordination with the AV team, and it comes together clean every time. No callbacks, no finger pointing between trades. He’s on almost every project we do that needs this expertise.”
